Arranging the work for the Eclipse

CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a diagnostic check on the 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse, we connect you with a trusted shop. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.

About your Eclipse

Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your Eclipse, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Its 2.4L 4-cylinder drives through a 5-speed manual.

What CarmaCars does here

We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You approve the shop's quote before any work. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.

A car while yours is in the shop

We collect the rental when your car is back. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

Before the shop starts

Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.

Car care, briefly

If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
